Really really stuck in recovery.. - LG G6 Questions and Answers

Hi guys
SO Ive tried a number of things.
Im currently stock in recovery or fastboot.
It happened after I applied a substratum theme on 8.1 Resurrection Remix and I restarted the phone because it froze on applying the theme.
No mater what I do I always end up in recovery.
Things tried so far:
Everything besides ext. Sd wiped numerous times before and after reinstall.
Full restore including everything (bootloader, recovery, cache, all the restore options you can use in TWRP aka the full monty. based on Fulmics 4.2 ive used to restore beforehand)
Full reinstall of Resurrection Remix
Full reinstall of Fulmics
Reinstall of TWRP
Reinstall of MElina TWRP
Each and every reinstall and restore takes me promptly to TWRP just after the LG logo..
My question is, how do I fix this?
I have full access to both fastboot and recovery

Lgup and uppercut clean flash

Thanks do you know how I get Windows 10 to detect it as a LG handset not just ADB or Bootloader interface? LG USB drivers are installed.
It does recognize it as portable device. (probably MTP mode as I have full access to)
Edit 2: I discovered as soon as I plug in USB on the PC the phone boots up and into TWRP even if I've turned it off prior to that

So I thought locking the bootlooker was a good idea.. Apprently not as I now can't get past "Your device is corrupt" screen.
I can almost boot into bootloader until the last confirmation "delete userdata screen" after where it goes back to "your device is corrept" screen..
Can get into iMEI display screen - Never seen that one before

Power off your phone and when the screen turns black press and hold vol up and plug in your usb cable. Your pc must find your G6. Then download a stock rom and flash it with lgup and uppercut.

Are you getting to the factory hard reset prompt? You have to go through that to get back into the recovery. Then you can just restore from Backup.

--This is copied and paste from another thread--
"You should be able to get to CWM recovery by using the hardware button (power and volume down held down, flash LG logo for a second, and then shuts off--only then you can turn it back on by holding power and volume down together until LG logo pops on, then let go of both buttons quickly, hold down both power and volume down again, and then quickly let go of the volume down button: a white factory reset screen should pop up and then you can push power button alone twice to enter CWM recovery).
If above does not work, you may need to KDZ back to stock using download mode (google LG G2 download mode) and USB cable (the one that comes with the phone as some USB cable won't work as they're charge only cable). You'll have to reroot with IOROOT25 and start over again."

I have no idea what fastboot or download mode is but your phone should be soft-bricked? If you can get into recovery or the factory reset screen you should be safe.
I wasn't able to get into the recovery at first but then I kept trying and trying and managed to get in by luck. Lol. I then wiped everything including Dalvik cache in Advanced and rebooted and was relieved to find it booted into Dirty Unicorns. I guess i was lucky.

LG G2 VS980 Bricked

Guys I need urgent Help
Recently I was running AOSP based ROM and tried to flash RR ROM based on Android 5.1.1.
I was not being flashed and was giving error so I dont remember which bootloader or file I flashed to make RR Rom flashing possible.
Then I flashed Gapps and wiped Cache and Delvik and restarted the cell.
After Restart, it was stuck on bootloop. One thing not to forget, It remains stuck on bootloop for several times and finally boots up, and the first screen comes is Android upgrade that works on 96 apps. As soon as upgrade completes, it reboots and remains stuck on bootloop.
If i try to enter into recovery, it takes me to fastboot mode where blackscreen with like commands stating fastboot is displayed.
If i press the volume button up and plug in the cable while connected to Laptop, Download mode starts but Laptop doesn't detect any device.
On the other hand, if started in fastboot mode, ADB device is detected.
I have tried to install LG Drivers, Verizon Drivers and also universal ADB drivers but nothing has worked so far.
The device is not detected at all.
I have windows 10, also tried on windows 8.1 but same issue.
Even tried disabling Driver Signature enforce or updating system but still same issue.
Anyone who could be able to help will highly be appreciated.

OP2 soft bricked, can't access recovery, not recognized by laptop

Hey,
Very strange query but here goes. Rooted phone a while back and installed CM13 along with recovery. Was trying to update TWRP{ by downloading .img from their website, went to flashing, selected the file and hit recovery. Said it was succesful so attempted to reboot. Plugged in to charge and was charging but when I tried to switch it on, it was stuck in Cyanogen Bootloop (blue alien stayed on the screen for 10+ minutes). Tried rebooting to recovery by hitting power + volume down and instead of booting to TWRP, it takes me to a Cyanogen recovery screen where I see the following options:
Cyanogen Recovery.
- Reboot system now
- Apply update
- - -apply from ADB
- - -choose from emulated
- Factory reset
- - -system reset
- - -full factory reset
- - -wipe cache
- Advanced
- - -reboot recovery
- - -reboot to bootloader
- - -Wipe system partition
- - -view recovery logs
Here's what I tried as troubleshooting. Tried to do a system reset, factory reset and wiped cache and tried to restart my phone but no luck. Still stuck in boot loop with CM logo. Tried to reboot to bootloader but the screen is stuck with the 1+ logo for about 5 mins so gave up on that.
Basically, right now I can't access anything on the phone, can't find any way to reinstall a ROM and when I plug it into my Macbook, it is not recognised. So I'm screwed sideways. I had TWRP recovery set up so I have no clue how this happened but can anyone please help me with this.
If data isn't at risk try the Qualcomm recovery tool one the oneplus forum it's by nammand bhal (definitely butchered the name) but all data is lost and resets the phone to out of box conditions locked bootloader and Oos 2.2.1 so this is often a last measure (tool is Windows but may have Mac variant and the file is quite big)
My suggestion is to try to boot to bootloader again and flash TWRP
hmm mac book I don't have much experience with those
If you have a Windows pc you can use adb or on Mac if it has it. Also when it come to being found by a computer in recovery it should but again don't have a mac
CM13 replaced your TWRP recovery with Cyanogen Recovery.
Try to boot into fastboot by holding volume up+ power buttons. If successfull, flash TWRP Recovery, boot into it, wipe everything and do a clean install of the ROM.
Macbook won't detect your device unless it is booted up, in recovery or in fastboot mode.
Doesn't it detect while you are in CM Recovery??
Try selecting Apply Update and Update from ADB. It should detect the device atleast now. If yes, try sideloading.

I knew I would regret getting that macbook at some point
Borrowed a friend's PC and was able to flash TWRP recovery. Was then able to boot into it and do a clean install. Ended up installing Oxygen OS this time. Do you know why this issue occurred so I can research how to prevent it next time.

Actually I don't think the issue was with the Macbook since I have unlocked, flashed custom recoveries and sideloaded ROMs on several devices including OP2, OP3, Nexus 5, etc on mine. It might have been some accidental flashing error, which unfortunately ended up bricking your device.

Soft-Bricked my OP6T, not sure what to do.

I've got a T-Mobile 6T, and I messed up. First, I installed TWRP and that went well, then I tried to install Resurrection Remix.
I wiped all of the partitions except Vendor because thats what I used to do on my OnePlus 3T, but this time whenever I would try to flash Resurrection Remix, it would give me an error. I tried and tried to fix it, and then I went to reboot into the recovery through TWRP to see if that would fix it, it just booted into the bootloader. Now I'm stuck in the bootloader, and I'm not sure what to do.
I've got no ROM installed, and no Recovery installed(I assume because I can't boot into it), and I can't get the MSMDownloadTool to detect my phone. Thanks.

Turn off phone completely, hold volume down (or up and down, can't remember) and plug in phone to PC. MSMTool should recognize your phone now.
To get the phone to turn on and enter Qualcomm 9008 mode, turn the phone completely off, hold down both Volume Up and Down, then connect the phone directly into the PC without pressing the power button. If MSM does not recognize the device, reinstall the drivers. If that fails, make sure you are connected to a USB 2.0 port, not a 3.0.
Since you can access the bootloader, just flash a fastboot rom. Allow it to flash completely and reboot. Use the flash_all_partitions file.

Just fastboot boot twrp and flash full rom zip or restore a backup if you have one.

Or you can use the fail safe MSM download tool.

Bricked device can it be fixed?

So I had a OnePlus 5 laying around and decided to flash pixel experience with twrp and everything was fine until I decided to update ota. Then it took me to twrp but it wouldnt let me do anything. It was just stuck in the loading screen. So I managed to reflash twrp and got it working again with factory reset but then whenever I went into twrp it never asked for a password even tho I had one. I also tried backing up but it kept failing so I took a chance and saw a video on how to flash derpfest so I wouldn't have to deal with its problems again and so I followed the instructions and downloaded the ROM to the device and wiped everything except the internal storage and USB storage so I could flash the ROM but when I attempted to flash the ROM it wasn't there. I just had a bunch of files with different names and so I attempted to adb sideload oxygen os and it looked like it worked but when I was about to reboot it said there was no os even tho I flashed it so I took a chance and rebooted. Now I have no os recovery or bootloader and I keep getting a bootloop with the OnePlus logo. Am I screwed and if anyone can plz help
Your device does not fail anything, it just needs some more software. Follow my guide and your device is fixed in 10 minutes. Download the drivers on your pc. If you do not know how to do then open readme file. Run MSM some admin and set settings currect. Connect your phone to PC with USB. Press power and vol - an vol + buttons on same time. Look on PC new device registered. It's normal your phone s screen is black. Start MSM and select download mode and unbrick tool. Wait long time and your phone os is reinstalled. Official OnePlus tool.
Msm + Driver link:
I have compressed driver and MSM to gz file, for faster download and upload. Use 7zip file manager to open gz file.

Try to reflash recovery via fastboot. Then reboot in recovery. Connect device to your PC. If the device is not shown on your PC, enable mtp in recovery settings. Copy your ZIP-file to flash to your phone. Install it from recovery, reboot.
The important thing is to get a working recovery. If you can boot in a recovery, your phone is still working.
Just follow this. You can get your phone back to stock
